Mobility Lab
Testbed with special equipment for (“HPS”, HIL-PIL-SIL) modeling, simulation and testing of electronic systems in component or integration assembly, is mainly focused on advanced assistance systems and systems for autonomous driving of cars and industrial vehicles.
Industry
Services & Equipment
The lab supports advanced automotive testing, validation, and development, including functional safety and Automotive SPICE processes. Its infrastructure enables high-speed vehicle testing, smart charging, and precise energy flow monitoring for conventional, hybrid, and electric vehicles.
Our cooperation includes:
Energy flow monitoring and control
Monitoring and control of energy flows of each appliance with significant electricity consumption — HIL systems, active dynamic test room, controlled ventilation, hydraulic systems, and other technologies.
EV and plug-in hybrid charging infrastructure
2× outdoor charging stations (2× 150 kW), 1× indoor charging station (1× 80 kW) for hybrid or electric drive.
Functional safety and Automotive SPICE
Functional safety and standardization of development processes in the automotive industry (Automotive SPICE).
